June Instructor Highlight: Zoe Mandl

The B.A.D. Team is an important part of our studio community, and we want you to get to know them as well as we do! This month’s instructor highlight is Zoe Mandl! Fun fact, Zoe has been with B.A.D. since day one! Max met Zoe for coffee on the same day that they got keys to our B.A.D. home!! They were also part of the team that built the truss that keeps us safe. In addition to all their outdoor adventures, Zoe teaches Silks 1 on Tuesdays at 7:00 pm and Fridays at 4:00 pm but what about when they are not at the studio?

Zoe Outside The Studio

Zoe’s started doing aerial around 8 years ago with Aerial Cirque Over Denver. Since moving to Bellingham, they’ve been training with members of the Bellingham Circus Guild. While they enjoy moving in all the apparatuses, the silks hold a special place in their heart.

We Asked Zoe A Few Questions

If you were a wrestler, what would your entrance song be?

Smack A Bitch by Rico Nasty

What was the name of your first car?

Purp

Max & Zoe were reverse matching. Max insisted on a picture, and it makes Max smile every time it shows up on their photo display at home.

Just finished putting together the truss with Vertical Arts!
